Method of Coalescing Information About Inspected Objects
First Claim
1. A method of coalescing information about inspected objects comprising:
- acquiring an image set of an object to be inspected, said image set having a three-dimensional model of said object and a plurality of two-dimensional images of said object;
identifying a location of interest on a surface of said modeled object;
designating global coordinate points of said three-dimensional model that characterize said location of interest of said modeled object;
creating a markup tag of information that annotates said location of interest;
associating said markup tag with said designated global coordinate points of said three-dimensional model; and
conveying said markup tag when viewing any one of said plurality of two-dimensional images of said image set that have at least one image point that correlates to a corresponding designated global coordinate point of said three-dimensional model that characterize said location of interest.

Abstract
A method of coalescing information about inspected objects. The method includes acquiring an image set of an object to be inspected, the image set having a three-dimensional model of the object and a plurality of two-dimensional images of the object. A location of interest is identified on a surface of the modeled object and global coordinate points of the three-dimensional model are designated that characterize the location of interest of the modeled object. A markup tag annotating the location of interest is associate with the designated global coordinate points of the three-dimensional model, and the markup tag is conveyed when viewing any one of the plurality of two-dimensional images of the image set that have at least one image point that correlates to a corresponding designated global coordinate point of the three-dimensional model that characterize the location of interest.
